Yes. I found that menu a day or two later - the way they hide when you want them is amazing. I was surprised that the header disappeared. I've been thinking about that behaviour since. I can see that there is less need to describe the content of the column. However, actions like sorting are often embedded into the column header. Also the ability to modify the columns on display, which is the functionality that I wanted. I also think that retaining the column header provides consistency, and that is assuring for the user.

thanks again for producing great software,
